Shameless country. Good for nothing government. That means someone with the virus can test negative and someone without will test positive. And the spreading will increase.
Funny enough US released a positive patient into the society because the person testing negative twice.
The fact that the guy is negative now doesn't mean he wasn't positive b4. It means he had a low exposure to the virus and his immune system has been able to fight the virus.
The virus is not death sentence, it's very treatable if you have a good immune system.

The surviver rate of the virus is 97 percent.

The test kits are fake. The Medical Laboratory Council who are constitutionally empowered to test every diagnostic kit that enters the country are not allowed to properly do their job due to unneccesary politics in the health ministry.

Come on guys, don't tell me this is how our youths think.

Currently, the virus has infected 142,000 people worldwide. Of these 70,000 have recovered and tested negative.

The minister did not say it was a mistaken diagnosis. The person, after immune response, tested negative and is due to be released. This is how it works.

Absolutely. Someone needs to come and research

Let me rephrase, how do you explain the markedly low incidence and prevalence of this disease in blacks?

Several questions has been put forward by expert to explain why the virus doesn't make much inroad into Africa, but the low level of infection among black is understandable considering where the virus originate. China population is predominantly white. Even with the influx of Nigerian which may account for increased black population, the 1.5 billion still hold a very small percentage of black, and with only 70 thousand randomly infected in the country, there is a low likely hood of sick black people.

If the country is shameless, what are you still doing here?

If the government is good for nothing then why say foul language when you know you're better than the government.

The country may not be what we want it to be for now but it's certain I and other positive people will make it.

Is that the Kit used to detect Covid 19 Abroad too ,No offence please just humbly asking am not a Science student ,Asking for knowledge purpose .I anticipate
Yeah generally PCR is the definitive tool for the detection of respiratory viruses. Even if it's a copy of the virus, it'd be amplified into millions of copies that can be easily detected.

Yeah you're right, a lay man doesn't even know what PCR is so not to confuse with the reverse transcriptase we'd want to add to the PCR.

RNA viruses are more precise using RT-PCR

Interesting analogy. So if I get you right, the numbers are low in foreign countries not because we are immune but proportionately speaking, we are also fewer in number?

Here is where your logic is flawed. If this disease isn't selective, then the morbidity/mortality rates should mirror the distribution of the individual races in a geographic area. This isn't the case here hence the reason we are all wondering why that is. Care to explain?

Exactly what I'm thinking.
I hope they're not using expired test kit.

Anyway, I'm not a medic.
How old is coronavirus? Before talking about expired kit.
Do you know more than the Nigeria medical doctors put together? Or politics has made you lose hope in Nigeria human capacity? Until you have serious problem you won't know Nigerians can solve lots of issues. We are not as bad as politics has made Nigeria look

Am not in the biological Field but what I know is that our body produces some kind of antibodies when we get infected, and this antibodies somehow help us to combat the virus untill we no longer secrete the virus in our body.
At the point of infection we could take antiviral medicine to slow down the rate at which the virus reproduce in our body. And our immune system do the remaining work.
